Your online reservation system for parks is flawed.

When I search for Winslow Woods Shelter for 9/21/2019 with starting time 8am, I get a result of "Unavailable." If I change the starting time to 12am, I get a result of "6am-11am Available." This is clearly incorrect behavior and has caused us continued confusion starting at least since Fall 2018.
This should be a high priority item for fixing, since it makes the reservation system very unreliable.

People driving off road vehicles on Jackson creek trail, driving on,the basketball court, driving on the playground a 6pm in the evening with people playing basketball, little kids on the play ground and users on the trail. The also drove them in the grass through the butterfly area trails. Black Nissan truck with trailer two off road vehicles. Guess you need a sign what would seem to be obviously irresponsible. It was a family with 2 adults and two, maybe three kids.

People are again living in the shelters at Butler Park. Not only are they preventing others from using the facilities but they are leaving trash, clothing, and other messes when they do leave.

The plants alongside the trail at Butler Park just West of the bridge are so overgrown as to inhibit use of the path. I suggest they be trimmed back.

The drinking fountain by the playground in Southeast park seems not to drain properly - all the water pours out underneath the bowl.

At Broadview Park, the gates are just sort of hanging there. They seem to be off their hinges. Thank you!

I went to the RCA Park yesterday looking for the pickleball courts that I saw were located here when I searched on line. When I saw this sign I was confused. I didn't see any sign for pickleball so I thought I had the wrong place. I was about ready to leave when I finally noticed the pickleball courts beside the tennis courts. Why not put up a sign up for the pickleball courts to avoid confusion for others. Thank you

All parks should have at least one bike rack. I don't see one at Park ridge park even though on a bike trail?

I absolutely love RCA Park and often go with my two dogs to walk the trails and play in the open field. Overall I feel safe, but I have noticed homeless men walking the trails behind the school and walking into the woods (presumably to do drugs or to find their camps which are obvious from some trails). Although not completely comfortable with this, I understand it is still a public park. My main concern is the human feces I have encountered at the park. Once, about a month ago, right on one of the paved trails, and again today (Sept 24) on the concrete area of the public restrooms. This is a serious safety matter that needs to be brought to your attention. Thank you for all the hard work your department does!
